A totally delightful love story, rich with the atmosphere of Spain

Based on Cervantes' famous novel, this is a sunny love story that unfolds between Kitri and Basilio, two young lovers that Don Quixote encounters in the course of his picaresque journey. The dances making up the ballet are a series of bravura displays of technique, which, along with the colorful costumes and stylish staging replete with the lyricism of Spain, make this a rewarding and popular work.
